Air conditioning units for server rooms

There are several types of air conditioning units used for server rooms, each offering unique features and benefits. At Mechcool, we create a bespoke system that best suits your needs to ensure maximum efficiency. Here are some of the most popular types:

wall mounted air conditioning

Wall mounted units

Wall mounted air conditioning units are compact, versatile units that provide efficient cooling and temperature control for small- to medium-sized server rooms.

Their space-saving design optimises floor space in the server room, while targeted cooling ensures effective heat removal, maintaining stable operating temperatures for sensitive equipment.

Wall mounted units have adjustable airflow direction and fan speed options, allowing for customised cooling settings based on the specific requirements of the server room. These units are energy efficient, providing cost savings over time.

With their ease of installation, maintenance, and flexible placement options, wall-mounted air conditioning units are a practical solution for cooling server rooms with limited space.

Downflow Systems

Installed in server rooms that have a raised floor with supply grilles in place of tiles, these systems are designed for commercial server rooms that need a high capacity of cooling to be delivered in order to maintain a certain temperature. We can design and install new downflow systems or replace your existing.

ceiling air conditioning

Ceiling cassettes

Ceiling cassette air conditioning units are an excellent choice for server rooms, offering several benefits tailored to the specific needs of such environments. These units are mounted flush with the ceiling, providing efficient cooling while maximising floor space.

They deliver even, balanced airflow across the entire server room, often featuring multiple controlled air outlets that allow precise temperature distribution and eliminate hotspots.

Ceiling cassette units are known for their quiet operation, which is crucial in server rooms where noise reduction is essential. They are also designed with advanced air filtration systems, effectively removing dust and other particles from the air, enhancing the overall air quality in the server room.

Benefits of Server Room Air Conditioners

Modern IT environments generate constant heat, and even small temperature swings can increase the risk of downtime. Installing dedicated server room air conditioning helps you protect critical infrastructure while keeping running costs under control.

Protects IT Equipment and Extends Lifespan

Reliable server room air conditioning helps protect servers, switches, firewalls and other critical hardware from heat stress, reducing wear and helping equipment last longer.

Reduces Downtime and Maintains Performance

Consistent cooling lowers the risk of overheating-related outages and helps prevent performance throttling, keeping systems stable and services running reliably.

Improves Airflow and Prevents Hotspots

A correctly designed server room cooling setup delivers even temperature distribution across racks and high-load zones, helping eliminate hotspots that can damage components.

Controls Temperature and Humidity

Maintaining the right balance of temperature and humidity helps reduce the risk of condensation, corrosion and static build-up, creating a safer environment for sensitive IT equipment.

Boosts Energy efficiency and Supports Future Growth

A properly sized system avoids overcooling and wasted energy while giving you a scalable foundation to support additional racks, higher heat loads or future expansion.
